Downtrodden peoples will look to the house of David for justice and lovingkindness God is going to lay in Zion a tried and tested Stone, a precious Cornerstone The people of God will see their divine Teacher and will enjoy his abundant blessing as a result of listening to him A Leader of the future will be a shelter from the storm, like water in a dry place Yahweh’s Servant will bring forth justice to the nations, and will be a Covenant to the people, a Light to the nations Yahweh’s Servant is divinely appointed to teach, to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to be a Light to the Gentiles Yahweh’s Servant is an obedient disciple who endures suffering and indignity God’s Servant is rejected, suffers horribly for the sins of others, dies, but then sees his seed and is satisfied The eyes of the people of God will see the King in his beauty Messiah has been anointed by the Spirit of Yahweh to proclaim the Good News to the poor, and liberty and deliverance to the captives The divine Breaker will lead the people of God out of bondage A glorious Ruler will arise from Bethlehem to shepherd the people of God and give them victory over their enemies Yahweh comes forth from the salvation of his Anointed, and will strike through the head of the house of evil God will raise up a Righteous Branch who will act wisely and execute justice and righteousness in the land Upon return from exile, God’s people will serve David their King who will serve as Mediator and draw near to God for them A son of David will be made a Witness, Leader, and Commander for the peoples A Redeemer will come to penitent Zion
